This picture honestly does the talking. Accessories can really make or break your outfit. You can go from basic to bang’n in like two seconds when you add a few accessories. Plus let’s be honest, accessories tend to save you a buck when a new pair of jeans can cost you your entire week’s salary. Okay maybe not, but still!
I have always been an accessory junkie. Chunky necklaces and matching headbands were my life in high school. It was almost digesting how much effort I put into matching back in the old days. *cringing at the thought.
Even if you are a gal that prefers a more minimal appearance, you can still create a my dynamic look by adding a few touches to your outfit choice of the day. So, here are my tips to adding a little bang back to your outfit with some accessories.
1. Add Some Color
I know that color isn’t for everyone. But adding a pop of color in your shoes or handbag really can take the boring out of an outfit. Neutrals are staples, but can also get basic really fast. Jazz it up a bit by adding some color to the mix.
2. Don’t Leave Your Wrist Bare
Throwing on a watch, chunky bracelets, or chains can really add an element of “put togetherness.” I feel like I just made that word up, but you know what I mean…!
3. It’s All in the Shoe!
For whatever reason, I was not really a shoe person until recent years. But now I have seen how they really can spice up your outfit. It is also the easiest way to add some fun or edginess to your outfit choice.
4. Be a Bag Lady
My heart stops when I see a nice handbag. It is my weakness. I am that girl in church checking out the ladies handbags while I am sitting in the pew. I know, I am terrible! But bags are your biggest asset when accessorizing.
5. The Bigger Earring the Better
I used to think that huge earrings were for old ladies. But honey, earrings are the THING. And the more obnoxious and colorful, the better. Don’t be afraid to go a little nuts with your ear lobe bling!
6. Pucker Up
Those lips are one of your biggest accessories. I know it can be intimidating to sport a bold lip color. But it is so chic! Pink, red, or even purple, just take your pick and be confident. Even if you are wearing minimal makeup, having a bold lip color makes you look very put together.
Accessories are POWERFUL! Be powerful in your day to day life. You are capable of amazing things. Believe in yourself and rock those accessories girl!
